MEMPHIS, TN - AutoZone Park presents the screening of The Sandlot on Friday, October 19th at 7pm. David Mickey Evans, the writer, director, voice of the film The Sandlot will introduce his film, recounting for the audience where the idea for the story came from, and host a Sandlot Trivia contest for a chance to win a pair of original PF Flyer sneakers.

Tickets for the event are $7 individually or $20 for a Family Four Pack. All tickets are available on memphisredbirds.com. Gates open at 6pm. The movie is scheduled to start at 7:30pm.

The Sandlot is entertaining its second generation of fans -- the sons and daughters of all the film's original fans, who are now moms and dads. It has some of the most often quoted dialogue in motion picture history, including the classic lines, "You're killin' me, Smalls!" and the unforgettable, "Heroes get remembered, but Legends never die."

Fans will have a chance to meet the writer/director, before and after the screening, where he will be signing posters, DVD's, baseballs and photos with a portion of all proceeds donated to charity.

The screening is a once in a lifetime opportunity for families, baseball and movie lovers of all ages to watch the "The #1 Baseball Movie of All Time," and "The #1 Summer Movie of All Time," outdoors, under the stars, just the way it was meant to be seen.

"It has always been a dream of mine to screen The Sandlot in great baseball stadiums. I am thrilled to bring the film to AutoZone Park (home of the Redbirds), smack in the middle of America where the film has always had its most enthusiastic fans," said David Mickey Evans writer/director/voice of The Sandlot.
